The Playstation 3 is not designed to automatically detect the video cable you are using, so switching between different types is a bit of a pain. You'll need to go into the settings on the console and change the video source from the AV cables to the HDMI setting. You'll notice that your screen will likely go blank at that point. Just have your HDMI cable ready to go. Once you've got that set up, then you will have video through HDMI.

Why the PS3 was not made to automatically detect the video source is something I will never understand.
